Justice Restored For Jeffreys

We thought we'd jinxed Andrew Jeffreys after he recently copped a bad beat with aces against jacks to lose half his stack, however the justice has been restored after Jeffreys doubled through Aleks Brkovic moments later.

Brkovic opened to 650 from under the gun and found three callers to go to a flop of {4-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}. Action checked to Brkovic who tossed out 1,350. Jeffreys popped it to 4,400 to force the other players from the pot, before Brkovic moved all in. Jeffreys made the call with his tournament on the line.

Brkovic: {9-Clubs}{9-Hearts}
Jeffreys: {Q-Hearts}{Q-Spades}

The turn was the {7-Hearts} and river the {5-Clubs} and Jeffreys doubles back to 26,500 with Brkovic slipping to 22,000.
